STRATO Setup

Review the installation script setup.sh in this repo for security, then SSH into your server and run:
```
bash <(curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/blockapps/strato-getting-started/master/server-manager/setup.sh)
```
You will be prompted to enter your node's domain name, admin email address, CLIENT_ID, CLIENT_SECRET, and NETWORK (optional)
Launch your node:
```
sudo strato-run
```

To update your node to the latest release, run:

sudo bash <(curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/blockapps/strato-getting-started/master/server-manager/update.sh)

or simply:

sudo strato-update

No manual steps are required. The SSL certificate is updated automatically every 2 months via a cron job.

If you need to manually renew the certificate, run:

bash <(curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/blockapps/strato-getting-started/master/server-manager/ssl-get-cert.sh) YOUR_DOMAIN YOUR_EMAIL

or simply:

ssl-get-cert YOUR_DOMAIN YOUR_EMAIL
